fil e
Use sed:
sed -e "s/^L//" file1 > file2
Make sure you enter [Ctrl] V, before typing the letter L. [Ctrl] V causes
the next character to be interpreted as a control character. In this case,
'[Ctrl] V, L' shows up as '^L'.
I hope this helps.

Subject: [HPADM] Howto remove control characters from a unix text file
Hi All,
How can I remove control characters from a unix text file.
For example:
# grep -v ^L file1 > file2
does not work, "^L" is still in <file2>
Thanks for any help !
